Weild, who marks her sixth Mee play with First Love, is completely in tune with Mee's collage-like style, and has guided her designers the same way. Edward Pierce's pastoral set of blue clouds and extra bright green grass, combined with Theresa Squire's boho chic costumes, and Paul Miller's lighting, resemble the surrealist paintings of René Magritte.

To complement the surrealistic qualities embedded in this play, Edward Pierce has designed a fanciful set, assisted by Paul Miller's poetic lighting. Without using special effects, the creatives conjure up a world where anything is possible and the rules of reality can be bent.
